Best known as George Gershwin's assistant, musical adviser, and intimate friend, Swift was in fact an accomplished musician herself, a pianist and composer whose Fine and Dandy (1930) was the first complete Broadway musical written by a woman. This fascinating book-the first biography of Swift-discusses her music and her extraordinary life.Vicki Ohl describes Swift's work for musical theater, the ballet, Radio City Music Hall's Rockettes, and commercial shows. She also tells how Swift served as director of light music for the 1939 World's Fair, eloped with a cowboy from the rodeo at the fair, and abandoned her native New York for Oregon, later fashioning her experiences into an autobiographical novel, Who Could Ask for Anything More? Informed by rich material, including Swift's unpublished memoirs and extensive interviews with her family members and friends, this book captures the essence and spirit of a remarkable woman.Fine and dandyComposersUnited StatesBiographyWomen composersUnited StatesBiographyElectronic books.ComposersWomen composers780/.92BOhl Vicki1950-1026560MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452330503321Fine & dandy2441529UNINA01318nam a2200337 i 450099100266954970753620020508204051.0000220s1958 it ||| | ita b11043398-39ule_instPARLA166878ExLDip.to Filosofiaita517Leibniz, Gottfried Wilhelm218350La disputa Leibniz-Newton sull'analisiTorino :Boringhieri,1958239 p. :ill. ;20 cmEnciclopedia di autori classici ;2Scelta da documenti degli anni 1672-1716Traduzione e note di G.
